Third secular blogger killed in 3 months
Tribune Report
'After confirming his death, they chanted Allahu Akbar and escaped'
When the law enforcers are yet to unearth mystery behind the killing of secular activists Avijit Roy and Oyasiqur Rahman Babu in less than three months, unidentified miscreants – believed to be members of radical Islamist groups – hacked to death another listed science writer in Sylhet yesterday.Blogger_Ananta_Bijoy_Hacked_to_Death
Four masked assailants on two motorcycles chased banker Ananta Bijoy Das, 32, around 8:30am after he came out of home in Subidbazar area for office. They hacked at him with machetes while Bijoy ran for his life.
Bijoy could not run too long; the killers stopped him near Nuranee Dighee and hacked to death before fleeing the scene, police say.
Local tea stall owner Sobhan Mia said the killers were hitting Bijoy with machetes so crazily that his brains came out of the shattered skull. “After confirming his death, they chanted 'Allahu Akbar' and escaped.”
In response to another question, Sobhan said as he wanted to go closer, the killers stopped him by hurling abuse.
Police are yet to confirm motive behind the killing or identify the killers, but officials suspect that it is another act of militant outfit Ansarullah Bangla Team or members of other extremist Islamist groups.
Asked who could be behind the murder, Sylhet Additional Deputy Commissioner Rahmat Ullah said: “You can imagine too. But we cannot make any comment right now.”
Bijoy was the editor of science magazine “Jukti” and a regular writer in Mukto-Mona (freethinker) blog, a platform founded by Avijit a decade ago mainly for Bengali and South Asian descent to practice secular thoughts. Bijoy was given Mukto-Mona Award in 2005 for his significant role in advocating secularism, rationalism and scientific thoughts.
He has written four books – discussing Darwin's Theory of Evolution, science and revolution.
A critic of extremist Islamists operating in home and abroad, Bijoy was a key organiser of the Sylhet chapter of Gonojagoron Moncho, a platform formed at Shahbagh in 2013 demanding death penalty for all war criminals and ban on Jamaat-e-Islami.
Like the other key persons of the Moncho, he too was a target of the Islamists who demanded enacting a blasphemy law to punish the “atheists.”
The Islamists in February 2013 also handed over a list of 84 bloggers and secular activists to the then home ministry seeking exemplary action against them. Later the law enforcers arrested at least four of them and filed cases for hurting religious sentiment of the Muslims and criticising the government.
Bijoy, Oyasiqur and Avijit were named in the list.
The latest killing has taken place at a time when the law enforcers say local Islamist militant groups, blessed by international terrorist groups IS, Al-Qaeda and Taliban, have been working together since last year to establish Shariah-based Islamic state in Bangladesh.
In his last status on Facebook posted yesterday morning, Bijoy criticised a local Awami League lawmaker for making indecent comments about renowned teacher Muhammed Zafar Iqbal.
